Northern Advocate/Northland Age 22/10/20
CONSULTATION CRUCIAL
I was appalled to read that four Northland Councils (Far North District Council, Kaipara District Council, Whangarei District Council and Northland Regional Council) are voting on whether to bring in Maori Wards (Northern Advocate 20/10/20).
Councillors should not have a mandate to bring in race-based wards without wide public consultation, their focus should be on infrastructure, environment and facilities which benefit all, irrespective of ethnicity.
If this current round of Councillor voting brings in separatist Maori wards then citizens can action a petition to force a costly binding referendum aimed at unwinding the Council decision.
Past Council referendums/polls show an approx 75% vote against Maori wards, a message that should not be ignored.

THE FUTURE IS DIRE
Ms Ardern’s only qualification is in Politics and Public relations. In reality Ms.Ardern has not held a proper realworld job and has always been fraternizing with left wing politics and socialist politicians.
This mealy-mouthed shallow ideology driven script reader for socialist think tank nonsense plus looks like a disaster magnet drama queen, with Christchurch massacre, White Island tragedy, Pike River re-entry debacle and Covid-19 examples.
The rest of the Ardern hand-picked Cabinet misfits (those who have not been dismissed) are even worse and this is not what Kiwis deserve.
A committed Socialist, Gay Rights/Gay Marriage advocate, Republican, Agnostic, Feminist plusTrade Union Pro-abortion and Climate Change/Carbon Tax supporter Ms.Ardern is also a maori separatist/race-based policy sympathiser.
The Labour & Greens ruinous race based maori policy manifestos should be viewed and read with disbelief with the following being unilaterally their way or the highway:
*Legislate to enshrine maori as the first and only indigenous peoples.
*Promote a Treaty based Constitution and then rename New Zealand.
*Fund maori providers on service contracts across the public sector.
*Connive with Local Government to embed unelected maori representation on Councils.
* Retain the race based maori parliamentary seats.
* Promote maori self-government combined with a separate maori legal system.
Failed policies. Kiwibuild fiasco, $3 billion Provincial Growth Fundfest with the latest $100m Marae funding plus a myriad of other Pinocchio type socialist policies and let’s face facts, the proponents of these schemes must be as thick as two short planks. Things ain’t going to end well with over spending over promising and under-performing, certainly no happily ever after conclusions likely here and nothing in the nature of Wellbeing.
When you also have a Minister of Justice seemingly preferring offenders’ rights over victims’ rights, Pike River re-entry ongoing fiscal madness plus a mishmash of hate and free speech things don’t look good.
In 2008 Ms. Ardern was elected president of the International Union of Socialist Youth, a movement whose purpose is to ‘defend and spread core specialist principles’. Ms.Ardern and her comrades think it’s best that everyone be made equal and this will be achieved through securing ‘redistribution of resources.’ – a major reset for the future beckons to banish inequality and poverty, the threat of climate change and need to diversify.
‘What was the most equal country in the world’ – will use this historic moment to impose the ghost of Karl Marx on itself. New Zealand’s future is dire. Socialists do not understand economics, farming or small businesses and are undermining the integrity of critical institutions and traditions.
They are planning to take from the so-called middle class ‘rich’ to give to the ‘poor’. Inevitably, a capital gains tax will be back on the table, as will wealth taxes to fund this.
People with energy and enterprise do not need Government to lead them. Ms.Ardern is transforming New Zealand into a Marxist socialist state and the tragedy is that most Kiwis are completely unaware of what is happening.
Ask yourself how could you trust any Labour/Greens politician or seek their advice on anything would you employ them and would you trust them with your financial investments - hell no so how come you support them to run up a $200 billion debt and then shrug off repayments.
As Churchill said “Socialism is the philosophy of failure the creed of arrogance ignorance the gospel of envy and the equal sharing of miseries by all”—
Socialisms main problem is that it eventually runs out of other peoples’ money to spend.
